Hey everyone, I am re-taking this exam, but have lost my book and can't get my PDF form of it to work. So I am hoping you can help me with the correct answers.
Thank you!

You should have done better picking answers at random. All of your 13 choices are wrong. Did you get the other 12 right?
You need to spend some time reviewing the subject, otherwise you do not deserve to pass the assignment. Try answering them again and explain the reasons behind your answers, and I will be glad to critique your reasoning.

Hello Susan! I'd be happy to help you with the correct answers to your exam questions.
2. To determine the correct answer, we need to know what the index of refraction represents. The index of refraction is a measure of how much light is slowed down when it passes through a material. It is a ratio of the speed of light in a vacuum to the speed of light in the material.
Given the options, the correct answer is D. 5 / 4. This is because a value greater than 1 indicates that the material slows down the speed of light. The higher the value, the greater the amount of slowing down.
4. To find the correct answer, we need to use the formula for illuminance, which is given by the equation: illuminance = luminous intensity / distance^2.
Given that the luminous intensity is 72 candela and the distance is 3 meters, we can substitute these values into the equation to calculate the illuminance.
illuminance = 72 / (3^2) = 72 / 9 = 8 lux.
Therefore, the correct answer is A. 8 lux.
8. The unit for measuring the rate at which light energy is radiated from a source is the lumen. Therefore, the correct answer is C. lumen.
9. To determine the correct answer, we need to know the properties of yellow and orange light. The frequency of light determines its color, and different colors have different wavelengths.
Based on this information, we can determine that orange light has a longer wavelength compared to yellow light. Therefore, the correct answer is C. a longer wavelength.
13. A virtual image produced by a lens is always located behind the lens. Therefore, the correct answer is D. located in the back of the lens.
14. The velocity of light is greatest in materials with low refractive indices. Among the given options, air has the lowest refractive index and hence the highest velocity of light. Therefore, the correct answer is A. Air.
I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any further questions.
